Note:

  • Haircut: This is the percentage of your shares’ value that your broker keeps as a safety buffer. For example, if your shares are worth ₹10,000 and the haircut is 10%, you’ll only get ₹9,000 for trading, with ₹1,000 kept as the buffer.
  • The interest you pay depends on how much you borrow after the haircut, and it’s calculated at 9.99% per year.
